Said Bengals coach Marvin Lewis when asked if he was worried about the running game, “I’m not. We’re not going to come out and run the wishbone in the preseason. We’re still going to try to evaluate the quarterback.”

Said 49ers RB Frank Gore, “We want to win. We got a taste of it last year, and it feels good. We want to keep that taste in our mouth. As long as we stay together and be one, we’ll keep that taste in our mouth.”

Seahawks TE Anthony McCoy has opened some eyes with impressive performances in the preseason.
